This Practice Note summarises the changes made to the Recast Regulation on Insolvency by Brexit SI, the Insolvency (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, SI 2019/146 which apply from IP completion day (31 December 2020). In general, the main operative provisions relating to automatic recognition fall away from IP completion day (see Practice Note: Brexit—impact on Recast Regulation on Insolvency). For a redline showing the impact of Brexit SI 2019/146 on the Recast Regulation on Insolvency from IP completion day (please note that these are not official versions but are useful working aids), see News Analysis: Brexit SI analysis: redline of Recast Regulation on Insolvency 2015/848 as amended by the Insolvency (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, SI 2019/146. While the articles of the Retained Recast Regulation on Insolvency have been amended by Brexit SI 2019/146, the recitals have not. As a result, these provisions still refer to the position under the EU Recast Regulation on Insolvency

ARCHIVED: This Practice Note considers the impact that Brexit will have on cross border processes when the UK exits the EU. It considers the current position in relation to cross border processes as set out in Regulation (EC) 805/2004, the European for uncontested claims regulation, Regulation (EC) 1896/2006, European Payment Order Regulation and Regulation (EC) 861/2007, European Small Claims Procedure Regulation. The Practice Note then summarises the UK and EU’s respective positions, considers the likely potential outcomes which may arise when the UK exits the EU as well as potential regimes which may assist. For an understanding of how a deal or no deal position may be reached, the House of Commons Exiting the EU Committee report: The progress of the UK’s negotiations on EU withdrawal (June to September 2018) which at para [35] provides a useful flowchart.

At 11pm UK time on 31 January 2020 (exit day), the United Kingdom left the European Union in accordance with a ratified Withdrawal Agreement between the UK and the EU.

The framework for a future relationship was set out in a political declaration, the terms of which were agreed

This tracker lists all Brexit-related financial services statutory instruments (SIs), together with explanatory memoranda and other information for each SI, as well as links to primary sources. The majority of financial services SIs have been published by HM Treasury under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EU(W)A 2018) to ensure that the UK continues to have a functioning financial services regulatory regime when the UK leaves the EU in a no-deal Brexit scenario or at the end of any applicable transition period.

Environment Brexit News Analysis LexisNexis® Environment has published News Analysis on a range of issues concerning the implications of Brexit, as set out in the table below. Retained EU law (REUL) is a legal concept describing EU-derived rights and legislation preserved by UK law after the end of the Brexit transition or implementation period at 11 pm on 31 December 2020 (IP completion day). Assimilated law is the name given to REUL which remains in force after the end of 2023. The re-categorisation of REUL (and associated terms) to assimilated law reflects a change in its status and treatment under UK law, in that it is generally to be interpreted according to ordinary domestic law and principles. From 1 January 2024, REUL is ‘assimilated’ into domestic law by virtue of the fact it is generally stripped of EU-derived interpretive effects (eg supremacy of EU law, directly effective rights, and general principles previously retained under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EU(W)A 2018)).
